So, I was diagnosed by a trainer today as having an "immature squat"; Basically, my glutes are weak and my hip flexors are tight... most likely from sitting at a desk for 8 hours a day and rarely doing front/overhead squats.
Anyway, I plan to focus on getting my glutes and hip flexors where they need to be by doing wall squats, over heads, bulgerians, samson stretches, etc... however I think i've strained my right hip flexor doing squat cleans a week ago. So my question is this: Do I continue working and stretching my hips, or should i let it rest up and not aggravate it anymore??

i assume your going light on your workouts? if not you should be think of it like a warmup only and thats it.
